John responded to my call immediately and Udo was with us within 4 hours to find and repair the leak which involved lifting carpet and floorboards and putting everything back perfectly. Udo has serviced our boiler for three years and is a lovely guy who really knows what he is doing.

Verified by CheckatradeReplacing immersion water heater

The plumber who came to check out the problem was very helpful and informative. Then the other plumber who came to fit the water heater was very accommodating when fitting heater, which is tricky given how small my flat is! I was happy with all the work they did.

Verified by CheckatradeLeaking shower tap

Quick response to a problem that was not straightforward to diagnose until the tap was partly disassembled. It turned out that the unbranded shower tap needed a new diverter. Udo was great in sourcing a higher quality replacement and came back on Saturday morning to fit it. I had previously been told by another plumber that the whole shower unit would have to be replaced - which would have cost 10 times as much. So I'm very satisfied.

Verified by CheckatradeNew boiler

Quick, clear, helpful and enjoyable communication from John at the company. Everything felt very straightforward and transparent. Udo who came to install the boiler was so polite and just a joy to have in the flat. He even asked if he should take his shoes off - what lovely manners! I feel like sometimes, as a woman, it can feel a bit uncomfortable having a random man come to your home, but Udo and his colleague were so pleasant and just very good vibes. He spoke to me like I was an intelligent person and didn't patronise, which was also refreshing. Honestly, just such a great experience!

Verified by CheckatradeBoiler problem

Our boiler kept heating the house, coming on then going off, when the hot water was on, despite fact heating was set to off and thermostat turned right down. Engineer came, investigated and found the boiler receiver to be faulty and wrongly wired. He replaced, re-wired and provided a new thermostat and everything now works.

John and his team are always very professional, responsive and highly skilled. He replaced a faulty water cylinder after another plumber had advised that the existing one was the wrong size and at risk of rupture. John verified this and gave a much more reasonable quote and completed the job to a very high standard.

Why this helps you judge trust: this trader is linked to a registered company with named people who are legally accountable for it, on an official register anyone can check, a layer of accountability an unregistered trader doesn't offer. Around 15 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.

Electrical work in homes in England & Wales should be done by a registered competent person who can self-certify it meets the Part P safety rules. Check they're on the official register.

Check the electrical register
In England and Wales, notifiable electrical work (new circuits, a consumer unit, anything in a bathroom or kitchen) must by law be signed off under Part P of the Building Regulations. Confirm they will handle that.
Prefer an electrician registered with a government-approved competent-person scheme (NICEIC, NAPIT or ELECSA) so they can self-certify the work meets the wiring regulations.
Insist on the Electrical Installation Certificate (or Minor Works Certificate) when the job is done. It is your proof the work is safe and compliant, and you will need it if you ever sell.
